[SOLVED] file conflicts while upgrading openSUSE leap 42.3 to 15.0

pschmitt · 08-01-2018, 02:10 AM

I followed the usual upgrade procedure from openSuse leap 42.3 to 15.0.
zypper lr yields the result showb in the attached file repList.txt.
Then I called zypper dup.
This downloaded and unpacked some 5000 packages okay.
The following conflict check found some 40 file conflicts shown in the attached file
fileConflicts.txt.
When I say "ignore" installation fails and i have to abort the process.
It seems that ffmpeg plays a role. but I am at a loss what to do.

All rpms for Leap 15.0 have a lp150 in the Name of the rpms....

So that is ok, you will install the Leap 15.0 packages........

And important for posting a Repo list ist the URL so better is to post

Code:

zypper lr -d

Doing zypper dup often creates complications, most of which less obvious until later.

IMHO zypper dup suits those eager to test technical improvements, stretch the boundaries, or are in business with Technical Support Specialists available to test, modify then control the installations to ensure no problems for the NON-Technical.

As follow instructions for zypper dup need disable all repositories then add repositories for Leap 15.

For NON-Technical recommend CLEAN INSTALLations.

When Leap 15 installed and re-started computer after updates, then one at a time add other desired repositories with assigned priority where needed then do installation of the added repositories required items.

As complete repositories installation, check results from COMMAND zypper ps then IF required re-start computer.

Previously disk space was a serious issue, today with most HD's much larger this less an issue.

For openSUSE 42 and Leap 15 self has allocated

40G to 50G Linux root (x86-64) (New Installation)
4G BIOS boot
400G Linux home (keep using when found during installation)
500M EFI System
1G to 8G Linux swap
40G to 50G Linux root (x86-64) (older root or other OS)
...etc

BTW openSUSE and other linux versions during installation often IF closely follow the instructions, able to import existing /home as new installations /home so do not need copy back the data.

BTW this can always go wrong, so backups ESSENTIAL, at least for critical things.

Notice the BOLD indicates PRIORITY-Levels for these updates.

Not for Updates, only for Installation of a packages that exists in an openSUSE Repo (OSS, Non-OSS) and the Mozilla Repo.

zypper update will not change an installed package to another Repo by himself.

For the normal Firefox, the Mozilla Repo is not necessary, the new Firefox will get later to the OSS-Update Repo.

Thanks to both of you, Sauerland and polpak, for your valuable comments.
Meanwhile leap 15.0 is up and running on my machine.
Though my poor backup - I forgot to include the configuration files
of the form pschmitt/.xx - forces a lot of extra work on me.
It is too embarrassing to name all the stupid things I did to get me into trouble.
One the positive side: I have learned somthing.
